The legacy envisioned by Mr. Le Corbusier to transform tri-city into a baton of the architectural aura is reinstated by RS Builders through Meltcrete, constructed with a south-west facing facade, quite challenging though, in a grooming industrial area- JLPL. With simplicity, the structure undoubtedly ensures merry affection towards its surroundings. The 3 levelled curved concrete layer is designed in a way to portray an impression of melting concrete, which also makes the building look taller than it is. The conceptualisation is done to metaphorically express the concrete poetry of the office lines. Minimal use of concrete and metal silhouettes together lowered the construction costs by almost half. Additionally, the silhouette practically serves the purpose of balcony fencing all across the building. The open laid-out plan allowed more room for expressive design as per the needs and requirements of the tenants. And hence, serves the purpose of being a trendsetter for upcoming projects nearby.
